I have never seen a game developer so hellbent on destroying their own game. Unironically, what is their fucking problem?
sweden
>>736387414they're swedish, self-explanatory
They hate you. They especially hate whiny faggots who make stupid fucking threads like this.
>>736387414Let me guess there was a completely unnoticeable nerf on a gun you like.
>>736387414Svenskar, oironiskt.
>2026>still no snow forest biomeit is so simple
The swedes wanted to make a milsim "grunt fantasy" game. You think you die easily and often now? The swedes wanted to ramp that even higher. Sony tard wrangled them into what we have now as the original version of the game was fun for about .0001% of gaymers. They are butthurt about this as they think they've been forced to make a call of duty game. As such, they despise what helldivers is and they despise the people who play it.
>>736387761I suffered from the Sony data breach in 2011, and am somehow expected to link a real account to Sony's unreliable bullshit. I just won't do that. Simple as!
>>736388273i dont think you even have to do this anymore.
>>736388273Eh? Buy it on steam if youre keen its been years since they tried to make that a requirement and failed due to massive backlash.That also wasnt the devs choice it was their publisher Sony who wanted to boost their stocks.
>>736388232>drop in>get immediately one-shot by a bug in .5 seconds>repeatOnly a swede would find such a thing enjoyable. How would you ever get anything done? How would you achieve objectives and win missions if you're immediately just getting ragdolled like MUH STARSHIP TROOPURZ. Did they just intend for the game to be one big humiliation ritual of constant defeat?
>>736388273You've never been expected to link a PSN account. It's optional
>>736388742Try not being a journalist
>>736387414They outsource an awful lot. Literally every good thing they’ve added to the game wasn’t made by them.
>>736387761It was probably the fix on Alpha Commanders reinforcements that has been broken for the longest time. It explains the bug seething >>736388742
>>736388742>one-shot by a bug in .5 secondsholy fucking skill issue
>>736388742Lower the difficulty numbnuts.
>>736387414For me, it was the shitstorm back in March regarding the charity challenge.I've been ignoring their bs for so long... wanting to just enjoy the game and not care about the drama. But that shit was the straw that broke the camel's back for.Really, it was so fucking simple... keep the non-apology statement but also do the god damn challenge. No post-challenge statement was even necessary, but that way they'd at least show they somewhat care about their game/playerbase and they also denounce doxxing without explicitly saying a word.
>>736389391*that broke the camel's back for me.
Swedish >announce warbond based on fire weapons >massively nerf fire weapons the day before the war bond releases >release war bond where the only thing anyone cares about is a gun because its a primary that feels good to use >nerf it, then try to pretend you didn't >support people being doxxed because they offered charity money if you played your own game>literally only play on difficulty 4>call everyone else bad if they don't want to play against the day-one version of the rupture strain bugs
>>736389391>caring this much about redditor dramaGo back
>>736389939I don't even have a reddit account faggot. I just heard the news when the CEO (or whoever it was) posted the screenshot of playing the game and thought it was cool so I decided to follow up on that. Only to get massively disappointed in what the final outcome was. My reaction has literally has nothing to with reddit specifically, nor did I name the site. You did since they live rent free in your head.
>>736388742>Only a swede would find such a thing enjoyablethat would be finns
>>736387414this game is an example that you only need halfway decent gameplay and a decent style to make a game that lasts even when its developers are borderline incompetent. arrowhead almost wants to fail but their game is just fun enough to keep living. other developers with more talent and good intentions should reevaluate their games when they fail. if your game fails when helldivers 2 still lives, then your gameplay and style are truly at fault.
>>736387414BRAAAAP
>"waaaah! the game is too hard!!!!">look inside>low skill retards, entitled niggers and optimization autists complaining about rngThe less fun it is for you, the more it is for me.
>>736388273Sorry retard, if you have any kind of credit or had a credit check run on you, congrats your data is already out there and being sold around the world when the big 3 credit companies experienced their data breaches.
>>736387761I am still seething about the SMG nerfs
>>736390534>arrowhead almost wants to fail
>>736390138what was the outcome?
>>736388742Skill issue.Though the bugs are dogshit to play against in close quarters. They can clip through the terrain and even through the corpses of bile titans/chargers/impalers while our guns do fuck all.
>>736391187>bring flamethrower to bugs>mostly fine>oopsies the confusion effect didn't proc now the bug on fire is jumping at you. better on reaction stim or you're dead if you have light armor
>>736391074You can look it up if you want details, but in a nutshell:>Guy who posted the original challenge was chased off the internet, doxxed, and lost his 7 year job due to harassment (this has nothing to do with AH ofc, but it triggered their following reaction)>Arrowhead released a non statement basically telling the whole community to "just b nice pls">Arrowhead denied ever planning to partake in any challenge and buried the subject, agreeing that they won't ever be doing anything like it and giving the doxxers exactly what they wantedImagine committing the cardinal sin of playing your own game or not bending the knee to people like that.
>>736389143>>736389345>>736390283Did you retards read the post I'm quoting? I'm referring to the original "vision" they had for the game before it was tuned down. Read, niggers
>>736391074>>736391807Forgot to add, as stated before, some guy at arrowhead had already started posting images of him playing the game and voicing his thoughts. All in good fun. Then, after the statement, he obviously went quiet as they all denied and buried the subject. So yeah, an absolutely pussy/shady move.
>>736391891>expecting third world retards that infest /v/ to have basic reading comprehensionYour fault anon desu, it's been like that for yearsBut to answer your point then yes, they wanted everything past difficulty ~6 to be literally impossible and for the game to somehow have both a strict life system and constant bullshit deaths at the same time
>>736391187Anon, ALL the enemies can still phase through terrain, they can also phase through the dead bodies of their own comrades while we have to deal with collision with it. What's that, you took out this massive elite style enemy that blocks the whole pass? Well too bad dipshit, that's only a problem for you, the opfor will still march (and shoot) through it anyway.
